Every story about Cameron Bruce — the Staples graduate who died in an accident at college last Monday — mentioned his zest for living, and the joy he took from (among many other things) swimming.
The Staples swimming, diving and water polo website has posted a few dozen photos of Cameron — in the water, playing music, graduating, with family and friends, enjoying the world.

So sad and so hard to understand. This should not have happened.
My thoughts and prayers for his family and friends.
I search for a reason “why” to all this? Is that irrational? Is there no rational reason for this young man’s death? It seems incomprehensible to me that such a fine young man goes off to college and doesn’t make it to his first class. Something is very wrong here and amidst all the tributes, I am angry. I want to know what happened so it may be avoided for the next Staples graduate and young Cameron’s death was not merely senseless.
